Source code availability

The source code was released on December 21st 1999, under the GNU General Public License 2.

How-to-play On-line

The digital version on Steam features a closed, proprietary multiplayer experience. It is incompatible with most modifications, QuakeWorld and more. In order to experience the entire world Quake multi-player has to offer - get a third-party client based off the source code release.

Grab a FTE QuakeWorld executable for your system and start playing immediately! You can host a server without port-forwarding by changing the 'Public' setting to 'Hole-Punch', which will show up in Frag-Net.com's master server list immediately!
